Leaning side by side with Wang Zhongsheng on the shelf behind the carriage, Yu Shiqi's eyes looked a little lonely.

As the carriage moved forward, Youling Inn got farther and farther away, and the girl wearing a white wooden mask standing at the door of the inn also became smaller and smaller in his eyes, and finally turned into an invisible black dot and disappeared.

Wang Zhongsheng held the scabbard with the broken Baipi Sword inside. He asked Yu Shiqi: "Brother Yu, didn't you have a good time at the inn? Why are you in such a hurry to leave with us?"

"I still have to go to Jingrong to find the client who hired me to paint." Yu Shiqi patted the two scrolls he held in his arms. These two were the Tianque Yuzhan and Xianquan Xiyue that were about to be delivered.

.

The look in Wang Zhongsheng's eyes told Yu Qi that he didn't understand. In his opinion, since Yu Qi and Xi Lingyue were both interested in each other, they should stay in the inn to promote their relationship.

"Brother Wang and Brother Li are going back to Jiangzhou?" Yu Shiqi took the initiative to change the topic.

"We have to go back to Jiangzhou." Li Yuanhe answered, "But first we have to go to Yunzhou to visit our junior uncle, eh? Brother Yu, is the Tongfeng Sect located in Yunzhou?"

"In Yunling, Lizhou Yunling." Yu Shiqi smiled.

Wang Zhongsheng gave his cousin a strange look, probably because he thought it was rude not to know which state he and Fengmen were in.

But Yu Shiqi didn't care about it at all.

"Are you a disciple of Tongfeng Sect?" Zhong Linqi, who was sitting on the other side of the shelf away from them, moved over at this time.

"Yes." Yu Shiqi no longer resented him and was willing to talk to him.

"Your mother is one of the desolate sect masters. How did you become a disciple of the Tongfeng Sect?"

The martial arts of the Huangwu Sect is not only unparalleled in the world, but at least it is above the first-line level among schools that focus on practical combat. It is also one of the rare martial arts that integrates the best of hundreds of schools without any barriers, so in Zhong Linqi's opinion

It's a bit strange that Yu Shiqi would leave the near and far away to worship Tongfengmen as his teacher.

"Mr. Zhong, to tell you the truth, I have been fostered in Tongfengmen since I was a child." After half a month of contact, Yu Shiqi had a rough judgment on Zhong Linqi's character and felt that he was at least half a good person, so at this time

Only then would he tell him these things related to his life experience.

"Foster care?"

"Well, it wasn't until three years ago that I found out that my master and my wife were not my biological parents. I came to the Western Wasteland not long ago and was involved in a mission of the Desolate Sect by chance, and I met my mother again."

He whispered, "You asked me before who my biological father is, but actually I don't know either."

Zhong Linqi stood there stunned, his eyes dull.

"Mr. Zhong?"

"Then what year were you born?" Zhong Linqi suddenly asked confusedly.

"In the autumn and winter of the twenty-fifth year of Taiye...what happened?"

Zhong Linqi said "Oh" thoughtfully: "Then you are twenty years old this year."

"Yeah." Yu Shiqi nodded.

"My daughter is four years younger than you."

That's younger than Xiaoci... Yu Shiqi didn't react at first, and was simply counting years in his mind. After a few blinks, he suddenly noticed that Wang Zhongsheng and Li Yuanhe were suppressing laughter, and he suddenly came to his senses.

, smiled helplessly and said to Zhong Linqi: "Mr. Zhong, please don't mention that matter again..."

"Okay, I won't mention it anymore. You are of such a good background, there will definitely be no shortage of people coming to propose marriage to you." Zhong Linqi smiled faintly.

Yu Shiqi lowered his head silently. He didn't like to hear other people talking about his background, but Zhong Linqi also said it in a joking and unintentional way. He had no reason to be angry over such a trivial matter.

"Hey, Mr. Zhong, what do you think of me?" Wang Zhongsheng suddenly pointed at himself and asked with a smile.

Zhong Linqi's face was straight: "What is it like?"

"Um... I am twenty-one years old this year... King Zhennan of the Golden Sword, my mind gate, is my father..."

"Oh." Zhong Linqi nodded, and then said bluntly: "My daughter is too beautiful, you are not worthy of her."

Wang Zhongsheng was stunned for a moment, and before he could react, Yu Shiqi and Li Yuanhe were already grinning from ear to ear.

He scratched his hair dejectedly and thought with dissatisfaction, am I that bad? As he thought, he glanced at Yu Shiqi. This guy was wearing an old cloak for who knows how long, and his eyes were lazy.

It's like he hasn't woken up yet, and he's not just a beautiful young man in the woods!

I really don’t know what the young shopkeeper and Mr. Zhong saw in Yu Shiqi. Could it be his easygoing and frank attitude that is a little silly? Wang Zhongsheng himself was amused by this idea.

"Hey, if you look carefully, Brother Yu's facial features are somewhat similar to Mr. Zhong's." Li Yuanhe suddenly exclaimed strangely.

Wang Zhongsheng raised his head when he heard the sound, looked at the two people, pursed his lips and nodded: "It's a bit similar."

"Maybe this is the reason why we are so close to each other." Zhong Linqi laughed, reached out and patted Yu Shiqi on the shoulder: "Little brother, where are you going to go next?"

"I promised my mother that I would go back to Tongfengmen to celebrate the New Year." Yu Shiqi said.

"Isn't there still a few months left before the Chinese New Year?"

"I wanted to see if I could take another job." He said sheepishly, "It's been a long time since I've been back. I can't go back empty-handed."

After hearing this, Zhong Linqi said: "You really don't want to consider the job I mentioned? I can pay you a deposit first."

"Come on, Mr. Zhong," Yu Shiqi refused without hesitation, "I won't take that kind of gray job."

Zhong Linqi just smiled faintly: "Okay, let me just say it casually. Are you in Jingrong for business? Then I will wait for you in Jingrong for a day. If you have nothing else to do after that, why not follow me to Jiangnan...

…Have you been there before?”

"I've been to Yuezhou. The headquarters of Yunzhongjian is in Yuezhou."

"It must be Deserted Villa." Zhong Linqi said.

"Does Mr. Zhong also know?" Yu Shiqi was a little surprised. He secretly wondered whether this Mr. Zhong, who was a Wangchuan assassin, also had something to do with Yunzhongjian back then? From the jade medal of Jinyiwei he held

Judging from it, it is very likely that he was one of those people back then...

"Of course I know." Zhong Linqi raised his lips and changed the subject before Yu Shiqi continued to ask: "But what I want to take you to is Wuzhou, which is my second hometown."

The expression on Yu Shiqi's face seemed to say that he had little interest in it.

"Wuzhou is a water town full of rivers and lakes. The small bridges, flowing water, pavilions and pavilions in Wuyue City, the state capital, are very famous. Since you want to be a famous painter, you should also experience these." Zhong Linqi was good at tempting.

After hearing this, Yu Shiqi was really moved. His only concern was that Wuzhou was a bit far away, and he was worried that he would not be able to make it back to Tongfengmen a year ago.

Zhong Linqi seemed to see through his worries and said with relief: "It only takes three days to take a boat down the river to Wuyue. As for returning to Lizhou, you can go north through Yuezhou, cross the river to Huai, and take the official road

It takes less than seven days to reach Lizhou after passing through Gyeonggi Province, so I can definitely catch up."

Yu Shiqi's eyes lit up, and he was about to agree when he heard Zhong Linqi say: "I've also thought of a gift for you when you go back. Wuyue's specialty snack, egg yolk and osmanthus cake, is delicious. You can take some back as a gift."

For your master, master, wife and fellow students. In addition, there are ham from Yuexi, spring tea from Huai'an, brocade and silk from Gyeonggi..."

"Sir, you are so thoughtful." Yu Shiqi said gratefully, but soon his expression turned gloomy: "It's a pity that I don't have that much money."
